It's not a perfect adventure, and there will be some frustrating moments, but I'm ready to hear more of the song that this game brings.
Unfortunately even though there are some great moments within this third episode, it comes across a bit more lackluster than the previous installments.
The particle effects for the various spells look great, and heroes are easily identifiable amongst the maelstrom.
The most distinctive change on PS4 and Xbox One is the bump up in frame rate for better performance
With every successive stage the potential dangers grow, and new ones are always being added to the pile.
The best way to describe The Escapists 2 from its predecessor would be comparing an NES game to a SNES game
It doesn't matter how good you are at shooting, the secondary weapons are what will be the deciding factor on when your eventual death comes.
StarCraft Remastered is still just as fantastic and compelling to play as it was nearly 20 years ago.
Overall F1 2017 took that momentum from 2016 and built on it to create an excellent experience.
White Day: A Labyrinth Called School has a strong and very compelling narrative. Finding out the school's hidden secrets and more about the ghouls that meander the halls will be a riveting experience to gamers.
Daedalic has a strong reputation, and they've maintained it with this release.
Even if it can't quite measure up to Yakuza 0's near-perfection, Yakuza Kiwami is still a thoroughly enjoyable experience for series veterans and newcomers alike.
Simple yet cute, and they often brought a smile to my face.
This is Naughty Dog at their AAA best.
Taking these Agents out on missions starts out fun, but quickly goes repetitive.
The Long Dark is a tense and harrowing experience both in Story and Survival modes.
This makes this Madden feel more like a Madden for everyone, not just for those tournament and league diehards.
Ninja Theory has delivered a game that is equally good and important for the industry in terms of serious storytelling and the ability to create AAA experiences at a low cost.
What starts out as poorly articulated, corny dialogue starts to feel very fitting of the environment as you begin to realize everyone is only a fragment of themselves.
Bottom line, while the art may have seen a drastic change the gameplay largely remains the same. The simplicity in controls allows for focus to remain on one's opponent. That simple style keeps things fun. The stages are constructed well enough that you never feel cheated by the environment, helping to zoom in even more on player vs. player combat.
